MEMPHIS SOUL SONG
Just hammer on the low E string in the second fret to lead into the A chords
in the verses and chorus. Other than that there’s no real solos or anything.
INTRO: A F#m A F#m
A F#m
Looking back on everything and all the things that stay
A F#m
I’m down on memories ‘cause they don’t go away
A F#m
Good times were hard to hold until she came along
D C#m7 Bm A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
A F#m
I’m not always there I know but she don’t mind at all
A F#m
Pretty as a picture that hangs on my own wall
A F#m
She’s like Mississippi when the sun comes up at dawn

She moves me like a Memphis soul song
E D A
With an angel on my left side and a devil on my right

She’s the one who saves me on those dark unholy nights

Of all the one’s who’ve left me it’s a wonder she’s not gone
D C#m7 Bm7 A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
D C#m7 Bm7 A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
A F#m
She don’t care what the game is she’s always down to play
A F#m7
My world without her seems a million miles away
A F#m7
She don’t have to worry I know where I belong
D C#m7 Bm A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
A F#m
I’ve laid down some aces and I’ve plaid them all the same
A F#m
But she’s the only one that keeps me in the game
A F#m
No fame or fortune could ever keep me gone

D C#m7 Bm7 A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
Bm C#m7
There’s a memory down in Memphis that never seems to fade
Bm C#m7
Even now them voices carry like a lonely serenade
Bm C#m7
It’s the memories that still and always will be on my mind
E
They move me every time
A F#m
She sees the good in everything there is to see
A F#m
Sometimes I wonder what she ever sees in me
A F#
I’m not always right you know but she’s never led me wrong
D C#m7 Bm A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
A F#m
In all my travels I’ve never found a way
A F#m
To find the words that say the things I’d like to say
A F#m
I’ve sang some melodies but she’s my favorite one
D C#m7 Bm A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
E D A
With an angel on my left side and a devil on my right
E D A
She’s the one who saves me on those dark unholy nights

Of all the one’s who’ve left me it’s a wonder she’s not gone
D C#m7 Bm7 A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
D C#m7 Bm7 A
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
